    <h1>
      Build Classpath
    </h1>
    <p>
      The build classpath specifies which Java source files and resource files in a project are
      considered by the Java builder and specifies how to find types outside of the project. The
      Java builder compiles the Java source files into the output folder and also copies the
      resources into it. The build classpath is specified for each project. In the project
      properties, it is referred to as the <strong>Java Build Path</strong>
